Petersburg author N.M. Konyaev undertook a grandiose study of "white spots" in the history of Moscow Russia and the Russian Empire. For three centuries, the Romanov dynasty ruled Russia, and it would seem that the country and the world knew these monarchs well. However, over the past centuries, many legends and myths have formed that "rotated" into history as historical facts. Through the magic crystal of Russian history, we suddenly see the secret of the heyday of the Romanov dynasty. Perjury, betrayal, sacrilege - acts so characteristic of the first Romanovs, reflected in the last reigns, change their sign, acquire opposite qualities. Starting with Paul I, and especially with Nicholas I, the moral transformation of the Romanovs takes place. The last Romanov manages to overcome all self-will, replacing them with the need to fulfill their duty.
